The dude took a Saints team that was 3-13 the year prior to his arrival to the NFC Championship game in 1 year. He has 7 division titles,  3 NFC championships, and a Superbowl ring.

Yeah I get it, maybe it would be not an outlandish price. But no, right now I would not pay that price. The team was in the superbowl and now is 2-3 with 3 losses within three points, in a season where everyone beats everyone. Too early to fire a super bowl coach and make such an extreme move for my taste.

I doubt Brees was all that Garappolo level of average, but even if. If we lose Burrow right now, we might have trouble even finding a QB as average as Brees was. Who'd be a candidate? Not to diss Cooper Rush or any possibly available QB, I don't see Brees potential.
